and there wasn't much of a delay all, mark halperin is a big - analyst. it's an absolute --3 apology. heartfflt to president and viewers. i made a mistake. i'm sorry and i shouldn't have said it. msnbc suspended halperin saying "we apologize to the - preeident, the white house and all of our viewers." the white house spokesman said he had called the netwook....it would be inappropriate to say that of any president of either party. (moos standup)actually the d-word episode seemed to be part of a larger, inside joke about thh show's delay button. the delay as set up allost 33years ago after the host himself, joe scarborough, swore without realizing it...or screaming bleep you at top f lungs...my wife is gonna kill me.after that tww delay buttons were established. one for live remotes and one for the hosts were joking about he - testing the buttons. and there manning the controls.so there's one button here, you'd think this was it. well apparently there's this other button over here. alex you're supposed to kkow how to do the job before you get the job. ther
